On May 18, the Nuggets team rushed to Russia to prepare for the tiebreak battle. Both sides had already fought to the end of the ammunition and food in the first six games, and each took out the things that were under the box. The final game of the series was the quality of the star and the depth of the lineup. After all, any tactics had been thoroughly studied by the opponent at this time.

The Nuggets, who played away today, updated the list of injuries. In addition to the substitute and starters, a total of five people were injured, namely Gordon's hamstring strain, Westbrook's hand sprain, Murray's physical condition was unwell, Holmes II's Achilles tendon torn, and Hunter Tyson's ankle sprain is not an exaggeration to say that it is an injury full of camp.

Among them, Gordon injured his left hamstring while grabbing the ball in the last quarter of the sixth game of the series and withdrew from the game directly in the last few minutes. It is reported that the lightest hamstring strain will have to rest for at least one week. Gordon is currently actively undergoing rehabilitation treatment. He himself has a strong desire to play, but coach Adelman said that he can only decide whether Gordon will play before the tiebreak battle.

Nuggets' starting player Murray and substitute player Westbrook are also injured. Murray feels unwell due to illness, Westbrook has sprained his right hand and is carrying protective gear when boarding the plane to Oxford City. However, facing the upcoming tiebreak battle, as long as their physical conditions allow, they are likely to continue playing. In addition, Porter Jr. also had a certain shoulder injury, but the injury report shows that he can play in the tiebreak battle.

The other two were confirmed to be absent were Holmes II and Hunter Tyson. Holmes II's Achilles tendon tear has been reimbursed for the season, while Hunter Tyson was unable to play with an ankle sprain. To be honest, the absence of these two people does not have much impact on the Nuggets.
